Review:
"Providence recounts, with elegance and precision, the story of a woman's efforts to create a new life for herself ... Brookner has proved herself a master."-- The New York Times "Ambitious and disturbing ... uncommonly deft, witty and serious." -- The New York Times Book Review "Anita Brookner's themes -- experience, nationality, faith, innocence and betrayal -- evoke the pleasures of reading Henry James. [Providence is] an intelligent and moving novel." -- Francine Prose "[A] perfectly observed and quietly witty novel."-- Washington Post
About the Author:
